MOUNTAIN
HALF-DAY TRIP (morning) (Mount at
9:50 a.m.)
We
think these trips are among the most beautiful in the world! The trails
are steep but not dangerous. We ride up on the high mountain
ridges and down into the deep ravines; we usually see wildlife
and even in late summer there are still wild-flowers blooming up that
high! These rides are uniquely tailored to your specific preferences;
we conduct our rides to satisfy the desires of the guests and this
includes things like the rate of travel. However, there
usually
will be some trotting on the morning rides.
MOUNTAIN
HALF-DAY TRIP (Afternoon)
(Mount at
1:30 p.m.)
Numerous
different areas are offered on the afternoon trips. These areas range
from high mountain, steep trails to lower mountain and meadow trails.
They can follow the streams that flow down from The
Continental
Divide or they can travel back into the heavy forests.
Because of the vast area available, your guide will strive to give you
the type of trip that you want including how much time you actually
want to spend in the saddle. The actual time on the afternoon
ride is often a little longer and we spend more time enjoying the
beautiful country and taking pictures. While riding across
the meadows, we will usually ride among the cattle.
EVENING RIDE
(Mount at
5:00 p.m.)
For
those who want a true western experience but do not want to ride up
high or spend as much time in the saddle, we offer a casual evening
ride. We spend some time riding in the meadows then
ride
up near the base of the Gallatin National Forest . With the horses, we make
every
effort to maintain a slower pace This is a
great
ride for the "older generation". We try to be back by 7:00
p.m.
if possible.
